Arid lands are areas with arid climate and lack of water resources necessary for productive activities within the agro-industrial complex (AIC). The factor of aridity of lands is one of the key negative factors for economically effective crop production and development of fodder base in the structure of animal husbandry. The main characteristic of these lands is the insufficient level of irrigation and moisture supply due to the lack of internal water and precipitation. In this connection for successful development of agroindustrial complex by means of application of mentioned territories it is necessary to search and identify complex measures and ways directed on preservation of natural-productive qualities at the expense of optimal combination of ecological and economic components in organization of regulation of moisture and water supply system. The specified development of a balanced set of measures of economic and ecological nature is aimed at preventing further increase in the level of aridity and desertification of agricultural lands.
